Abstract: Summarization was made on achievements of forestry response to climate change in Zhejiang province during 2005-2019. Forest growing stocks increased from 172 million m3 in 2005 to 361 million m3 in 2019 with the total carbon storages of forest vegetation of 280 million tons. From 2006 to 2019, 412 000 ha were afforested or transformed, 1.81 million ha of young forest were tendered in the province. Zhejiang Carbon Fund of China Green Carbon Foundation was established, and forest carbon sink projects afforested 9 786.67 ha. Challenges were such as no more planting land for forest, not good quality of forest, serious occurrence of Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, and low awareness of importance of forest carbon sequestration. Recommendations were put forwarded including improving the capacity of forest carbon sequestration, reducing the carbon emissions from forests, strengthening the construction and trading of forest carbon sequestration, increasing the support for forestry science and technology, strengthening the leadership and science popularization.
